What is a Slab Leak?
A slab leak is a serious plumbing issue where water pipes located beneath your home's concrete foundation begin to leak. This often results from pipe corrosion, soil movement, or poor installation. If not detected and repaired promptly, slab leaks can cause extensive structural damage to your home, leading to costly repairs and potential foundation instability. Addressing slab leaks quickly is crucial to protecting your property and maintaining the integrity of your home’s foundation.
Signs of a Slab Leak
Detecting a slab leak early can spare you from costly repairs. The key signs suggesting you may be having a slab leak issue include:
- Unexplained Water Bills
A sudden spike in your water bill could indicate a hidden leak beneath your slab, leading to wasted water.
- Damp or Warm Floors
Noticeable moisture or warmth under your flooring may suggest a leak beneath the foundation, which can damage the flooring and underlying structure.
- Sound of Running Water
If you hear water running when no fixtures are in use, it’s a strong sign of a slab leak requiring immediate attention.
- Cracks in Walls or Floors
Visible cracks can occur as the foundation shifts due to water erosion from a hidden leak, compromising your home’s structural integrity.
